My Club is considering running Maximum Score Competitions [MSC] in accordance with CONGU Rules. An analysis of previous matches shows that had this form of play been in operation a player's score would have improved by 2 strokes and that with this score he would have been a Medal prize winner [3rd]. It has been suggested that MSC scores only count for handicap purposes. However, given that the potential score would not be known, as the player will have picked up, I am not sure that this is the case. One could divide the field into those players who had submitted cards with MSC scores [ eg 20 players play 4 return cards with MSC scores 16 players are eligible to win prizes and 4 are not] but this seems to be outside the intention of the MSC competition.
Do any members have experience of running MSC competitions and if so how do they deal with the above potential issue?
